Drake has shared his thoughts on the killing of Alton Sterling in a new open letter posted to Instagram.

Earlier this week Sterling, a 37-year-old black man, was shot dead by two white police officers in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He was reportedly selling CDs.

Hours after the letter was posted online, another black man was shot dead by another white police officer. Philando Castile was killed in front of his family while reaching for his ID in Minnesota.
